I'm a bit concerned about something. I'm 23 and recently, I've noticed that the head of my penis has turned a blackish color, and there are some horizontal wrinkles on it. I've been masturbating daily for the past three years, and sometimes I forget to clean up afterwards. Could you recommend a cream or any advice on what might be happening?

You may be experiencing a fungal infection or irritation on your penis head. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer of the cream on the affected area twice a day for 1-2 weeks. Additionally, make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and wash it gently after masturbating to prevent further irritation. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
